About this episode
Jase, Missy and Al welcome HGTV’s Ben and Erin Napier for a candid, funny tour of “real reality” TV—how faith shapes decisions, why small-town life resonates, and what it takes to protect your kids and your peace when cameras are everywhere. They trade early-day stories from Duck Dynasty and Home Town , convinced that every hometown has their own version of Uncle Si. A literal lightning strike punctuates the conversation as they celebrate community, craft, and the freedom to be who you are on and off camera.
